The decision is now published for the second appeal related to the Arbor Heights Elementary rebuild, which has had key elements on hold pending the hearing and ruling. City Hearing Examiner Sue Tanner has rejected the appeal by affirming the city decision to allow demolition of the old AHES. Here’s her ruling (PDF), or read it embedded below:

We’re checking with Seattle Public Schools regarding how the project timetable will be affected, now that the decision is in. A separate appeal related to the project was argued and rejected in May.

    As the future parent of a AHES student in 2017: Hurray!

    The school needed to be replaced ten years ago.
    Do it now! It’s a great staff. Long time parent.

    Glad it’s moving forward.
    Looking forward to a vastly improved educational setting for our neighborhood’s families and children.
